Last month I let you know that Indian was hosting a contest for Scout Bobber builds, though there is a twist – they’re specifically looking for non-professional builders. In their words, they want “wrenchers who do it for the passion, not the pay.” The submission period has ended and 12 finalists have been selected. Your vote will help determine the three winners!
The three winners will be provided with a Scout Bobber (here’s my review on the model, if you’re interested) and $10,000 to make their plans come to life. The winner gets another 10 grand in cash and a feature in Hot Bike magazine.
